Procédé d'élaboration d'agromatériau composite naturel par extrusion bivis et injection moulage de tourteau de tournesol

TL;DRAbstract

Sunflower cake is the residue of the seed oil extraction. It is a real natural composite. Its proteic matrix contains about 35% by weight. Lignocellulosic fibers from husk are the filler. Twinscrew extrusion under moderate conditions (profile with one mixing zone and one stress zone, 100°C, water content of 30%) and amount of additives (glycerol, sulphite) decrease the matrix viscosity. Sunflower cake, with or without additives, is made by compression moulding (10min, 160°C, 100bars) or by injection moulding (110 à 120°C, compression ratio from 1,8 to 2,0, mould temperature at 60°C). Plasticating screw and moulds need to be adapted for agromaterials moulding. Additives (glycerol, urea, suphite, gallic and octanoïc acids) and post-treatments (thermal treatment at 200°C, siccative oil) improve mechanical strenght and water resistance of injected pieces. During the first process steps proteins have a themoplastic behaviour, and when their native supramolecular structure is reoganized by t
